Whismur Sold - LF My Slowbro!

Lf Offers on Shiny Whismur - Currently on GTL 2m (sold) Downgrading Shiny Slowpoke to Shiny Slowbro + Adds.

Sorry for the very short notice, but an irl event has come up and I will not be back in time to host this today, Hopefully we can reschedual for later today or sometime in the week.

UU is defined as anything that is not OU or Ubers, so by extension anything that is in NU is also in UU.

New Spont For this week is up and ready!

Congrats to ElCala for being the first ever newbie spont winner! And to Murder for second place, and a great final match.

I am not entirely sure why the primary focus here is counters to Chansey. That is far from the only reason to ban something. Also, forcing a switch is nice and all, but it is not beating it,

Yep. This is Swiss, so you will be up against other players during the entire tournament.

Hey everyone! We are kicking off our first mix here in about a half an hour. If anyone will need rentals, you can post here now, or wait until it is time.

Sold some, didn't add any

You callin' me a newb?!

Mortal was a kiddie pool compared to Chaos server Wurm...

I just wanted to address this bit first. Chansey does have to options available to it that render Fake Tears / Metal Sound mostly useless. CM Chansey isn't used as much, but it is out there, and can hit pretty damn hard if given the opportunity. I don't see how "most" of the physical walls paired have instant recovery not highly supported by wish. I see this as true when paired with Slowbro or Vaporeon (if wish/protect counts as instant recovery), But Skarm is stuck with rest which makes it setup bait or switch bait, and Weezing has pain split, which again, just doesn't compare to Recover/SlackOff/Synth. Pain Split is only as good as it is because of Wish Support, otherwise it would be very prone to wear and tear. The differences are very apparent between P2 and Chansey, I am not sure why you are not acknowledging them. The ability to switch out of status, more or less for free, is a pretty big deal on a wall. The ability to Wish pass is kind of a big deal, but not quite as much. The ability to scout CBers is kind of a big deal. The ability to run a cleric set is kind of a big deal. I am not exactly sure how they are not different.

The second post with the first spont information shows all of the currently banned Pokemon in the tier, just for clarrification that means: Wobbuffet Salamence Tyranitar Dragonite Snorlax Blissey Gengar Pokemon above level 50 scale down to that level when you use tournament mode, so it is not a problem at all. Lastly, OU includes all of the Pokemon that are just "OU" as well as any Pokemon from lower tiers. That includes BL, UU, BL2, NU, and NCQ Pokemon :)
